CLIENT Clearwater, FL | Front Yard Butterfly Habitat
YEAR 2019-2020
DESCRIPTIONThis front yard butterfly garden draws in more than just pollinators—passersby often stop to admire the flowers and watch the steady movement of butterflies through the space. Originally installed by Wilcox Nursery & Landscape, the garden has become a vibrant hub of activity.
From 2019 to 2020, Wise Hands supported the health and evolution of this meadow through thoughtful maintenance. Our work included selective weeding, identifying and tending native seedlings, pruning only where needed to encourage flowering, and lightly mulching. By keeping mulch minimal, we allowed native plants to reseed naturally, helping the meadow thicken and become more dynamic over time.
For the homeowner, the garden became part of a daily ritual—a place to step outside with a cup of coffee and enjoy the ever-changing cast of birds, butterflies, and other visitors.
